Charging the Battery

CAUTION - ONLY CHARGE WITH A RECHARGEABLE,

LITHIUM BATTERY (LIR 2032) AND THE 110-VOLT(1) OR 230-VOLT(2) AC/DC TRANSFORMER PROVIDED. OTHER BATTERY AND TRANSFORMER WILL CAUSE INJUREY AND DAMAGE.

(1) For US only (Optional) (2) For European country

The watch must be fully charged before its initial use. When the watch displays ìLOW BATT.î (as shown in Figure 1) means the battery

in your watch need to be charged, please follow the below sequences to charge the battery:

Step 1: Use the Connector with one end clamp to the watch and the other end connect with the PC Interface and Charger (for EON3068HS) or Charger (for EON-3067HS). Make sure the three pins in the clamp are properly in contact with the three contacting points on the watch. (as shown in Figure 2 & 3)

Fig.2 Fig.3

Fig.1

LAP

Step 2: Use the supplied Transformer, one end connect with the PC Interface and Charger (for EON-3068HS) or Charger (for EON-3067HS),

the other end plug into a proper voltage AC wall outlet. When the light on the Charger turns from red to green, indicates the battery

is fully charged. (Note: For the purpose of watch only, the battery will last for

about 3 weeks. If you fully utilize the Fluid Loss and Heart Rate features (optional) for 1 hour everyday, the battery has to be re-charged for every week.)

Note:

1) The first time you try connecting the watch to the connector. Center the connector so that it is guided between the 2 mode buttons on the watch before it is fully inserted.

2) The bottom tab on the connector when properly inserted should be flush with the bottom of the watch. (as shown in Figure 3)

3) When the watch and connector are properly connected, the LED on the Charger will light up as red.

4) To achieve the best performance out of the watch battery, it is recommended to charge the watch for at least 12-hour before its initial use.

5) If you fully utilize the Fluid Loss and Heart Rate features for an average of 1hour a day, you are recommended to recharge the watch once a week. (For Time purpose only, the watch should last about 3 weeks.)

6) To ensure a longer period of the battery life, we recommend you to charge the battery immediately when the low-battery warning (i.e. "LOW BATT." ) appears on the watch.

7) After the first low battery warning comes on for 15 minutes, the EL, Heart Rate, Humidity & T emperature features will be turned of f in saving the battery energy.

8) When you charge the watch after it shut down, it will first enter Time & Calendar Setting Mode automatically, that enable you to adjust the time and calendar for the watch. After you finish the setting, it exits to the normal mode. Your personal settings and exercise data for your last exercise are well kept by the watch.

Note:

Our latest formula for Hydration and Heat Index are based on the Bodies Radiant Temperature and the Humidity around the body. The values shown on your watch when it is worn on the wrist are your Bodies Radiant Temperature, Humidity around the body and the Body Heat Index. To get the ambient temperature, humidity and heat index, please remove the watch from the wrist and allow at least 15-20 minutes before reading.
